The zip file is just screwed up. If it's what I think it is, this is the corrupted file that's been floating around the net for years since Cnet took it off Download.com. The trouble is, very few people seem to have the trailer (I'm one of them :D )...  [Read More]

I assume you're seeing text on the screen in place of the spoken dialog. The game has three modes where dialog is concerned: voice only, text and voice, and text only. If you are seeing text you probably got switched to text only. You can press CTRL-...  [Read More]

Bummer. The article was about spammers who have been sending messages saying that you've won some kind of game console. A link in the e-mail takes you to a site that instructs you to download a small program needed to claim the console, but in reali...  [Read More]

The laws are pretty useless. You're supposed to be able to opt out, but all that really means in practice is that a spammer can just stick an opt-out link in there and keep on spamming. The only thing to do is filter it out. Most spam is sent to a li...  [Read More]

Now, why hasn't anyone thought of this before: a GF drinking game! (...of course some people here are underaged, but still.) It'd need rules, like take a drink every time Manny says 'hнjole'. Needs thinking about....  [Read More]

No, not dumb. I don't really expect answers. The movies most people see are the ones released in their lifetimes and I'm just the opposite. If I want to talk about movies with someone, I have to pick a person who's at least sixty. :rolleyes: (This t...  [Read More]

It's a good thing he pointed out that he's interested in the Tim Schafer who was behind Grim Fandango. Otherwise we might have thought he meant the Tim Schafer who mugged Greta Garbo in Pasadena in 1928....  [Read More]

The answer is simple: you haven't got the tumblers lined up. :D Probably. The last person with this problem was lining them up the wrong way. It could be you're doing the same thing. The flat part of each tumbler has to be turned toward the right so...  [Read More]
